As said, you'll need to have a CD drive that plays DVD's. You probably do.
I had to reformat my computer awhile back and when I was reinstalling things on it I had a disk called Power DVD (I think that's what it's called, I don't have it with me so I can't check). I didn't put it on my computer because I figured it was something like Windows Media Player and I didn't need it. Once I got my computer all set, I tried watching a DVD. Needless to say, it didn't work. I called DELL customer support and they told me that I had to install Power DVD onto my computer. It's not just a player, it's the hardware that you need to be able to play a DVD.
That is probably only going to help you if you were in the exact same situation as me. Dell computer, reformatted, didn't re-install everything etc.
I'm not a computer expert in the least and I don't have any more suggestions for you. My advice would be to send this question to DangerNerd's inbox. Try to add as many more details as you can. If you give enough information, DangerNerd will most likely know exactly what is wrong. Good luck!

um, if you have a dvd-reading cd drive, it should have already come with the software and, if not, windows media player, realplayer, quicktime, or pretty much anything will do it. if it doesn't automatically come up, go to my computer, go to the cd drive that you put the disc in (it will have a disc icon and probably the name of the dvd if it can read it), and double click on it. if it says that you need to choose from a list of programs to play it, choose your preferred media player out of the ones above. if it doesn't, right click the drive, and it should say something like "open with..." where you can do the same thing. if that's not there, right click, go to explore, right click whatever is on the disc, and say "open with...". good luck
